My wife is experiencing pain in her lower left waist since 3 weeks. She applies moov and ice sakings, get relief for 1-2 day and the pain starts again from the 3rd day. She is unable to twist / bend. Also, experience pain while sitting & getting up from bed or chair.
She had experienced pain in her whole back 3 weeks back. The back pain is gone but the pain in the left lower waist is still there.

Avoid sudden bending and lifting of weights. As the pain is now limited to one section, mostly likely will be muscular.
While resting keep 2 pillows below the calves.
Next Steps
You may try muscle relaxants.
